Narrative:

I have been an inspection authority/authorized for 14 yrs. I have been the director of maintenance for a corporation for 12 yrs. In aug/98 we moved our base of operations. I filed a change of address with FAA in oklahoma city but neglected to inform the FSDO of my change of base of operations. With all of the moving and uproar, I forgot about far 65.95(C) that says you must notify your new FSDO of your base of operations. I discovered the problem when I received my inspection authority/authorized renewal application from the old FSDO in the mail. I have sent my new information to the new FSDO. With all that was going on and never having changed bases before, I should have had a checklist of things to be done.
